The Versatile Blogger Award!

The Versatile Blogger Award
Okay. I know I wasn’t supposed to interrupt the 31 Days of Giveaways, but this is pretty cool.

Alright, so ready for the cool news? I was nominated by several people, including the all-too-kind Chris James the lovely L.G. Kelso, and the fantabulous G. E. Johnson for the versatile blogger award. So thanks! You guys rock.

Here’s what we’re supposed to do:

  • Add the lovely award image to your blog. (check)
  • Write down seven random facts about you.
  • Nominate 15 bloggers and let them know.

 

Seven Random Facts

  1. I’m only a redhead in the summer.
  2. My favorite food is York bars.
  3. I broke my wrist when I was a child and had it reset 4 times before it healed. The doctor said, on my last visit, that it took so many tries because I didn’t scream loud enough the first 3 times it was set. >.<
  4. I couldn’t care less about clothes or fashion; I am, however, grossly addicted to sparkly diamonds and semi-precious stones.
  5. My husband is truly my soul mate. He has made me believe it true love when I previously thought it was only a plot device.
  6. I hunch over books with a pen and a highlighter whenever I read anything. Anything.
  7. I’ve been writing my Grimoire Saga for over 6 years and it’s an amazing feeling to have the first one published.
